Field Trips

Field Trips

​Atlanta Audubon field trips are a great way to learn more about Georgia's resident and migrating birds. They are also a great way to meet other people who share your interest in birds and the outdoors. Beginning birders are welcome on our trips! If you need to borrow a pair of binoculars, please contact the field trip leader in advance and he/she should be able to loan you a pair. Unless otherwise noted, our field trips are free and open to the public. Come on out and learn about Georgia's birds from Atlanta Audubon's enthusiastic, volunteer field trip leaders.

Please note: Some sites, such as state and national parks, require entry/parking fees. If registration is required, this need will be specified in the details. You can find details and driving directions by clicking on the calendar entry below or by scrolling down below the calendar to the description.

On occasion, field trips may have to be cancelled (bad weather, etc.) or important details may change (for example, the original meeting spot for a site may have to be changed if there is a trail closure or parking problem). If you plan to attend a birdwalk, ALWAYS check this site the night before for updates.

LIABILITY NOTICE: By signing up for a trip or attending a field trip sponsored by Atlanta Audubon, I acknowledge that these activities can be hazardous and that I could be injured. I agree that I am voluntarily participating in these activities and assume any risk of physical injury or damage to my property.

If you would like to lead a field trip, contribute ideas for places to go, or give feedback about leaders, trips, or the field trip directions, please email Teresa Lyle, Field Trip Director.

We have adopted the American Birding Association's Principles of Birding Ethics. We encourage our members to follow these guidelines on our field trips and elsewhere. Please see the ABA's Code of Ethics website to familiarize yourself with this code.
